Alek Gillies

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Andrew Touchette bet for 800 from middle position. Alexandra Botez made the call from the cutoff as it headed heads up to the flop.

The flop came the J♥2♣K♣, and Touchette led out for 700. Botez was quick to fold for Touchette to scoop the pot.

In spite of this hand, Botez and Touchette both have a significant advantage over those with the starting stack of 60,000.

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

The hijack raised 600 before Eric Fields three-bet to 2,100 in the cutoff. Jake Schwartz was on the button and put in a four-bet to 5,500. The blinds quickly folded as did the hijack, but Fields didn't go anywhere as he made the call.

Both players checked to the river on the Q♣Q♠J♣8♠3♣ board and Fields checked once more to Schwartz who dropped a bet of 4,000 across the line. Fields didn't take too long before surrendering the pot.

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

In a pot containing around 29,000 with two players involved, the board already showed 5♠Q♥K♦J♥ when Giovanni Zanette bet 9,000 and Paul Guichard tanked a minute before calling.

The 7♣ brought a pair on the river and this time Zanette check-called Guichard for 6,700. The latter tabled A♣A♠ and it was good to take the pot as Zanette mucked his hand.

Kirk Brown

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

The player in early position opened to 700 and was called by Sofia Lovgren in the hijack and Steven Veneziano in the small blind. The big blind also decided to come along and the four of them went to the flop of 4♦7♣3♣ which checked around.

On the turn Q♥, Veneziano led out for 1,600 and only received one call from Lovgren so the two went heads-up to the river 10♣.

Veneziano thought for a second before placing out a bet of 4,200 and Lovgren promptly folded to award him the pot.

Roxanne Johnson

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

The player on the button raised to 600 and Erick Lindgren in the small blind and the big blind both called. The flop came down K♠6♠3♠ and Lindgren bet out 500. The big blind called and the button folded.

The turn brought the 9♣ and both players checked.

The river was the 4♠ and with that last scary spade both players checked.

The big blind turned over 3♦3♣ for a flopped set and Lindgren turned over 4♦4♥ for the rivered, higher set.

The blind player said, "Write that he ran down a set of threes."

Maxime Taldir

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

"The hand should be on TV," said all players at Table 161 after the dealer collected all the cards in front of him.

According to them, a player in middle position opened to 600 and was called by the cutoff, the button, and Brittney Stout in the small blind. In the big blind, Devin Chojnacki decided to three-bet. It didn't change the situation, as every player called.

On the flop 8♠3♦4♦, the middle position player continued to 2,000 and the cutoff folded. However, the button chose to move all in for 40,000 chips. Stout also had a hand and reraised all in. All the other players folded.

Button: 8♣8♦
Brittney Stout: 5♦2♦

Stout had a straight draw, a flush draw, and an open-ended straight-flush draw against a top set. The turn brought the A♥, completing her straight, and the river brought the 6♦, giving her a straight flush. Thanks to this hand, she took all her opponent's chips and climbed to 140,000.

Player	Chips	Progress
Brittney Stout	140,000 140,000	140,000
